Phontak Hearing Aids Designed to Help all Impairments with Latest Technology

Phontak hearing aids are made with the latest in advanced technology and come in a small size so that no one has to know you are wearing one. As of today there are approximately 17 out of every 1,000 persons under the age of 18 in the Untied States who suffer from a hearing loss of some type. When the age of the respondents to the study of hearing loss was for those above 65, the number rose to 314 in every 1,000 had a hearing loss and this included the profoundly deaf – which, unfortunately, hearing aids can not help.

The Phontak hearing aids are digital and come in various shapes and sizes. They also carry a wide selection of digital devices that help a person hear without being a hearing aide such as an iPod that is actually a hearing device and other devices that are similar to the real device but are actually a device to help a person hear better.

The Phontak has an advanced technology that identifies feedback such as a whistling sound and eliminates it before it can be heard without compromising on the hearing for the person wearing the aid.

The Interton hearing aids are uniquely shaped to fit nicely behind the ear without a lot of fuss and simply into the ear but with great results. This small but mighty hearing aid will help the wearer hear better and clearer than they ever had before.

People often wonder how a person hears and what could go wrong to cause them not to hear. There are three parts to hearing; the outer ear, the middle ear and the inner ear. The outer ear collects sounds from the surrounding environment and sends them down to the middle ear.

The middle ear uses vibrations (off the eardrum) and three small bones – malleus, incus and staples – to process sound onto the inner ear.

The inner ear, which has two main parts, the cochlea and the vestibular system; tiny hair cells send impulses to the auditory nerve, then it travels to the brain for final processing of the sound. Many hearing-impaired individuals suffer from nerve damage which can only be helped so much by a hearing aid and therefore they must use other means of communication such as ASL – American Sign Language.
